In the beginning, it felt fine and convenient. Still, after using it for a while, I found that there were too few features to meet my needs, plus there were no quality updates and the frequency was not high after it become a subscription, so now I have switched to CleanShot X.

Awesome tool. One thing that is missing for me is auto-uploading to a cloud server, to get a sharable link. Is this coming?
@jvdmeij@leo_woods It seems dropshare do not have any api for other app. I will consider implement this myself (just like Monosanp), but no exact date guarantee.

I love this app and I've upgraded. The only nice feature I miss from Monosnap is the ability to drag the screenshot into an open app window (there's a Drag Me tab to the side). Can you annotate scrolled screenshots? The numbered annotations are an amazing feature.
@trishcupra Thanks! I am working on it right now. May take some time to accomplish this feature.

perfect solution to let me work quicker and would replace the native screenshot + skitch. I installed but uninstalled again when searching for the option to upgrade to Pro. I don't do subscription and I can't give it a test during my production time as there is always a watermark. Also, the fact annual subscription price can just rise killed my consideration completely.
1/ Go for a trial period + ask a 1 time price. I would even pay up to 15 euro for a tool that really makes my daily worklife easier.
2/ Use upgrade prices as you add new functionalities
I hope I can use this app 1 day ... cause looks very useful. Any idea for Windows?
@ssstofff Thank you, new feature under developing, subscribe can make Xnip go further. I think
asking for a new pay when big feature version comes and stop maintenance the old version actually makes no difference of subscriptions.
Will consider a one time price in some point.
No windows version on the plan.

I think CleanShot X and Xnip are the most successful and functional products in this regard. I congratulate you on this product, which is very successful for any use.
What are the advantages of Xnip compared to CleanShot X? I am curious about your explanation on this subject.
Thanks,
@ksarizeybek
Except for taking screenshots, CleanShot X can also record gif and videos. Xnip is more focused on making screenshots, currently.
I believe Xnip is better than Cleanshot X to make a screenshot. Xnip can make annotations instantly after you select a region, in other App, you need to open an independent to make annotations.
I believe Xnip's free version is enough for most people. And I think the price of Xnip Pro is not expensive at all.
If you want more features beyond make screenshots. I think CleanShot X would be a better choice (also a more expensive choice).
Hi,
I am Zeke Zhang, maker of Xnip.
Xnip is first macOS app I made. I have spent so much time to make Xnip better and better.
I hope you’ll like it!

@ezekielzzd This application would be PERFECT with one small change: add a stroke to the annotation features so that annotations stand out against similarly shaded backgrounds.

Hi Zeke,
I’ve been using Xnip and really appreciate the app — it’s one of the most refined screenshot tools on macOS. However, I’ve been experiencing a consistent issue trying to purchase the Pro version: the app freezes with a loading spinner when I click the Buy button (both yearly and lifetime options).
I’ve reached out multiple times to the support email (xnip.app@gmail.com) over the past month but haven’t received any response. Just wanted to check if the team is still active and if there’s a workaround or manual activation option available?
Thanks in advance — really hoping to continue using Xnip Pro and support your work!
Best,
N.S.

Small, smooth and helpful~ The best capture tool on macOS I've ever used! Better than snagit(too big) and snipaste(the ux is just not satisfying)
